A/N: All TY the Tasmanian Tiger Original Characters belong to Krome Studios.

I'm simply a huge fan.

Enjoy!

The Quinkan were gone, Boss Cass was gone, Fluffy was gone, everything and everyone bad… was gone. For once, everyone's life was peaceful. Ty finally announced his feelings to Shazza, and the two were in a happy relationship. Sly had continued to pursue his interest in bommerang making. Julius had taken over Boss Cass's lair, and Maury was still… well, Maury.

And it was one day while Julius was exploring Cass's lair, messing with his technology that he found a secret room. And in this secret room, was a tank filled with green liquid, and a floating, closed-eyed Tasmanian tiger. He had a mask of black fur around his eyes, dark brown fur, and black stripes going down his back. He wore nothing but a pair of black shorts.

"What on Earth is this?" Julius asked.

To which the computers around him responded "This is project Ry. Boss Cass had created Ry to take down Ty the Tasmanian tiger. The only thing he knows is how to kill." Julius stared blankly at project Ry, almost tempted to release him, then thought it would be dangerous if he did so.

'Maybe I can teach him to be good…' Julius thought to himself, sort of already taking on a parental feeling over the cub. Sure he didn't have the physical structure of a cub, but mentally he still was one. Smiling to himself, the Koala pressed the release button, and Ry opened his red, hate-filled eyes.

The glass prison holding Ry shattered, the green liquid spilling everywhere, all in one bright flash of white. The glass shards sliced Julius's fur, creating a few scratches which began to bleed. Besides that, he was fairly unharmed. Standing in the middle of the floor, looking weak, soaking wet, slightly bleeding from the glass shards, was Ry, gorgeous as ever.

Slowly, Ry began to take shaky, unsure steps towards Julius. 'He's like the son I never had… This is my son taking his first steps…' Julius thought to himself, holding back tears that threatened to come. Julius couldn't resist the temptation; he held his arms out to Ry.

A hopeful, happy smile crossed Ry's face as he part-limped, part-wobbled, and part-walked his way to Julius, then fell in the Koala's arms like a child. Julius pressed his paw to the tiger's face.

"Father…" Ry whispered, right before he fell back asleep, closing his now meadow-green eyes.

"W-what's wrong with him?! What's happened to my son?!" Julius yelled, then realized what he had said. He had called this test-tube baby his son. Why, though, he didn't know. Maybe it was because he'd wanted a child, but never had the ability to… He'd been so wrapped up in work, helping Ty save the world 'n' such that he'd forgotten to settle down… and Ry, maybe, just somehow filled that hole in Julius's heart.

"Something went wrong with his system…" a computerized voice said. "He has only known evil, but then you just showed him kindness. He is confused, and probably tired. Were you to keep showing him kindness, you might be able to change him, reverse everything Cass has done to him."

"Then that's exactly what I'll do." Julius said with determination.

Several hours later…

Ry didn't know where he was. He felt warm though, and his heart felt… good. He had never known this feeling before, and it scared him for a moment. It didn't last long, because after a moment of being conscious, a sharp pain shot to his head, and flashes of a golden tiger with darker brown stripes appeared behind his eyelids, followed by the word KILL in large red letters. Ry screamed as the pain continued.

Julius was just outside the hall of Ry's room when he heard Ry begin to scream. Fear gripped the koala's heart as he ran to his now awake and screaming son. He gripped the tiger's paw and hushed him until he was silent, drenched in sweat though, with his glowing red eyes open. Ry looked over to Julius, baring his teeth and growling. Julius flinched.

"Ry!" he yelled. "Ry, calm down! It's me!"

Ry blinked once more, and in that one blink, his eyes went from blood red to meadow green. "Father…" Ry gasped, seeing the face that had shown him kindness. He lay back down on his bed.

"Ry? How do you feel?" Julius asked, still holding his adopted son's hand. "What do you remember?"

Ry swallowed, he'd had a horrible, bitter taste in his mouth. "You… you let me out of the prison…" he said. "I walked to you… You had a smile on your face… I felt… something different… I don't know what it was… it was all tingly, and it felt good…"

"That, my boy, is called happiness…" Julius said.

"I feel that right now…" Ry whispered.

"What happened just moments ago? Why were you screaming?"

"I saw another Tiger. His name was Ty… and after I saw him I saw… I saw something… do you have something I can draw on? I'll show you…" Julius's heart had frozen, but he handed Ry a pencil and paper anyways. Ry gripped the pencil and wrote out a single word.

KILL

Julius realized that the kid didn't know how to read, but he probably knew what that word meant. If Ry was ever going to be let out in the world, he was going to need a lot of work. Starting with this.

"I know what that means, father." Ry said, pointing to the word. "And I don't want to hurt anyone…"

Julius put a paw on Ry's shoulder. "I know you don't. And I won't let you hurt anyone. I promise."

Thus the end of my first chapter! What do you guys think? Please review!
